  1. I might give that a try, good thinking man. Did you do plug test to see if its too lean that way?
  2. My needle is only one notch below yours, and my friend has had his in every notch available. Maybe my post should have been titled (Where can I buy leaner needles?)
  3. I tell ya what, bigger carbs are gonna hafta give this bitch about 20+ hp in order for mine to run anywhere near how everyone on here says theirs run. Maybe I'm expecting too much I don't know. I'm thinking that a stocker would give me a helluva run right now.
  4. When the damn thing was stock i could be cruising in sixth and just nail it and tap the clutch and the bitch was gone. Now you gotta just grind the piss outta the clutch in sixth to get on the pipe and pulling. Thats got nothing to do with the pilot jet. It's fine, the bike idles and putts without loading up and is crisp when I nail it in lower gears. In the upper gears its kinda like driving a 75 Ford LTD and pulling out to pass without the tranny kicking down. Kinda goes BAAAAAAWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO and then finally gets on the pipe and hauls ass. Sucks!
  5. I live north of town. Are you going to the ABATE dirt drags in June? It's a good friggin time, not to mention it's about a 5 min ride from my house.
  6. I have a 12 port stroker motor from Jim and am running stock carbs (they suck I know). I have 25 pilots, as the bike wouldn't idle with anything larger and it constantly wanted to load up and blubber when trying to putt around. The needle is a dynojet needle in the 3rd notch from the top. Mains are 370. My problem is that when in fifth or sixth just cruising along at say 1/3 throttle and nail the throttle, it takes forever for the motor to come on the pipe. I'm thinking that it is running too rich in the midrange and can't pull itself on the pipe. My reasoning for this is, it was worse when the clip was in second notch from bottom. I know, I know, raise the f#@&ing clip idiot! It also gets worse as atmospheric temps go up. Heres the clincher though, my friend has the exact same port job with the exact same pipes,(FMF Fatties) and exact same gearing, he was so frustrated that he stuck his stock needles back in and its still too rich. So where o where do I go from here? It runs fine when putting around in 1-3 and nail it, it will jump on the pipe rather quickly and is a load of fun. It runs like a scalded hog when its on the pipe and it will keep scalding him if you're raping it through the gears, its just that the roll on power sucks balls. I was hoping not to resort to spending another $500-$600 on gdamn carbs already. Someone help.

  8. I wont be able to send any pics until this weekend but I guarantee it's mint. This bitch has never touched the soil. If it doesn't look like new it aint going on my bike.
  9. I've got a PRM desert grab bar that I want to trade for a nice stocker. No junk!
  10. Ronnies or your local Honda dealer.
  11. I'll take $300 for the pipes and post some pics later this week as I don't have any right now.
  12. I've got a chrome set of DMC 916 that i'm wanting to sell. Don't really have any use for T5's though.
  13. I'd do it but the Pro Design is built differently than Trinity. Thanks anyway.
  14. I'm looking for a set of 21cc domes for Trinity StageIV head. I've got 20's that I'll trade or I'll buy em outright.

  16. I may be interested in buying them outright as well, please send pics to redrider30_2000@yahoo.com
  17. I'll trade, send me a couple pics of your pipes.
  18. http://www.tippmann.com/wwf75/default.asp This is an excellent forum for paintball.
  19. My bike has done that shit ever since I bought it. So do all of my friends. The hub is just loose on the splines. (Piss poor Yamaha tolerances) Not much you can do about it, except throw some cash at it and buy new hubs and axle. I just let mine be, it's not wearing out brake pads or sprockets and it doesnt seem to be getting any looser. My motto is they'll either wear in or wear out!
  20. Atchison,KS About 30 mins from North KC.......much to my regret, 5hrs from dunes.
